XII Abandoned - Masakari

Our essence compelled by

responsibilities, never-ending and meaningless.

We willingly give up our freedoms

to sources of power and manipulation.

I feel abandoned and alone in a mindless crowd

There are no distinctions between the

herd, compelled by the same necessity

Repetition, Boredom, Depression

The only connection between those who forge our paths

and those who follow are the chains that bind

The tighter the authorities chains become

produces a stronger faith in the fallacy that is existence

And we feel abandoned in a crowd of millions of slaves

Drop to your knees and obey to an endless, inevitable mediocrity

Their power prolongs itself because of our

weakness, our insecurities, our ignorance.
